Hot on the heels of this stellar annual failure, the Pentagon has decided to be even more wasteful, frivolous, and ridiculous.

Fox News

The Department of Defense (DOD) is requesting approximately $114 million to finance its latest round of diversity initiatives.

The DOD plans to use the funds for "diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility" (DEIA) programs in fiscal year 2024.

"The FY 2024 President’s Budget request demonstrates the DoD’s commitment to DEIA and includes $114.7 million for dedicated diversity and inclusion activities," the department wrote in its Strategic Management Plan for fiscal year 2022 to 2026.

Wars are popping up everywhere, China gets bolder by the minute, and our Dept. of Defense wants over a hundred million to blow on DEI insanity. It's good to know that when China does finally invade, our military will be inclusive and able to properly convey their pronouns to our occupiers. /sarc

Just another social program slush fund. Where’s the Argentinian president when you need him?

GOP Congress persons should demand equal funding for "Meritocracy" training.

E.G. - the hardest and most focused workers get promoted.

I’m guessing the ones requesting more for diversity are wiggers or a specific shakedown minority wishing to destroy the capability of our military even more.

Watch, the Rats will threaten the GOP with a government shutdown if the Pentagon doesn’t get this funding. And Johnson will cave to them, just like he did last time.

Why does Congress allow this garbage?

By now DoD should be passing these audits.

“Out of 29 individual sub-audits of the department, only seven passed this year, the same as the year prior, Comptroller Mike McCord told reporters Wednesday. “

I was involved in these audits for a non-DoD department for many years. We only had an issue for one year out of the 15 years I was around. We make the fixes immediately!

An organization that fails these audits on a regular basis need to experience repercussions.
